Recently I started a Fly fishing club at my school. The school didn't provide us any funding. So, we had to look around and try to scrap up some stuff, with an occasional donation. I had sent an email to Allen Fly Fishing, asking if they would be willing to donate a fly box...and let me tell you, they did. Justin wrote back pretty quickly asking 1 question, what was my address. I gave him my address and behold, a box stuffed with fly fishing stuff in the mail. I opened it and was completely shocked. He was so generous I couldn't believe it. I think he is this site's sponsor(?) but I just wanted to say thank you so much! Here is what he donated: 13 fly boxes, 3 leader wallets, 9 nippers, 3 net keepers, 3 zingers, and 7 hook sharpeners.

No FLY RODS? NO REELS? BOO ALLEN!!! Nah I am just kidding. Those guys are pretty generous... they sent me a prototype of a reel to use that they have not come out with yet but are in the process of finalizing. I thought that was pretty nice of them. My experience with them has been pretty good as well Gaeron.

Ditto. All the reels I own are Allen and are great products. He's got a great company and his customer service is top-notch. It's been interesting to follow their progression from their "early" reels to the latest releases.

Gaeron do you guys need any fly lines? I have a $25 gift certificate to Ryfyguys Risen fly company. I could purchase two lines and send them your way? Let me know, because I believe the sale is over tomorrow on them.
